The wait for GTA VI on PC might not be as long as many players expected. According to a new report from GamesBeat published on October 13, 2026, Rockstar Games is planning to release the PC version in Q1 2027. That means sometime between January and March 2027.

Honestly, this would be pretty good news for PC players. Rockstar usually makes console players wait quite a while before bringing its big games to PC, so getting GTA VI just a few months after the console launch would be a nice change.

There is one thing to keep in mind, though. Rockstar has not officially confirmed the PC release date yet. 

The report is based on information from four industry sources who are familiar with the company’s plans. So, for now, it is worth treating this as a rumor rather than a confirmed launch date. 

When will GTA VI release on PC?

According to GamesBeat, Rockstar is targeting the first quarter of 2027 for the PC port of GTA VI. Here is how the reported release window looks.

  • Reported PC release window: January to March 2027.
  • Console release date: November 19, 2026.
  • Official PC release date: Not announced yet.
  • Report published: October 13, 2026.

If everything goes according to this reported plan, PC players could get the game around two to four months after its console release. That is a much shorter wait than what we saw with GTA V.

Of course, plans can change during development, and Rockstar has not confirmed that this is the final schedule. I would not start counting down to a specific day just yet, but early 2027 sounds like a reasonable possibility based on this report.

Has Rockstar confirmed the GTA VI PC port?

No, Rockstar has not officially confirmed a PC release date for GTA VI.

The company’s current official platform information lists PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. GamesBeat’s report cites four anonymous industry sources, but Rockstar did not respond to the outlet’s request for comment before publication.

That means the Q1 2027 window could reflect the studio’s current plans, but it is not a guarantee that the game will launch during those months.

There are also no officially confirmed PC release details to share yet regarding system requirements, pricing or digital storefront availability.

For now, I would keep an eye on Rockstar’s official announcements instead of trusting every release date floating around online.
